Skillet Say Goodbye Chords Guitar Tab

Alright guys, I liked this song and saw there wasn't a tab and thought it deserved one
although I'm not sure it's 100% correct, I gave it a shot. soooooooooo, here you go and I
you injoy.


There's really no strumming chords in the first verse but I'm gonna throw the one's down
play.


Verse 1:

C G
Things are changing
F
It seems strange and
C
I need to figure this out
G
You've got your life
F
I got mine
Am
But you're all I cared about
G
Yesterday we were laughing
C
Today I'm left here asking
Dm
Where has all the time gone now
F
I'm left alone somehow
Dm
Growing up and getting older
F
I don't want to believe it's over

Pre-chorus riff:

e-----------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------|
D---3--3--3--3--3-------------------|
A---3--3--3--3--3-------------------|
E---1--1--1--1--1-------------------|


Chorus:


C G
Don't say goodbye
F C G
Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight
F Am
Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I
G
And although we knew
F C
This time would come for me and you
Dm
Don't say anything tonight
F
If you're gonna say goodbye


Verse 2:
C-G-F-C-G-F-Am-G-F-C-Dm-F-Dm-F
C G
Do you remember
F
In December
C
How we swore we'd never change
G
Even though you're leaving
F
That our feelings
Am
Would always stay the same
G F
I wish we could be laughing
C
Instead I'm standing here asking
Dm
Do we have to end this now
F
Can we make it last somehow
Dm
We both know what we've gotta say, not today
F
Cause I don't wanna leave this way

Pre-chorus riff:

e-----------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------|
D---3--3--3--3--3-------------------|
A---3--3--3--3--3-------------------|
E---1--1--1--1--1-------------------|


Chorus:


C G
Don't say goodbye
F C G
Cause I don't wanna hear those words tonight
F Am
Cause maybe it's not the end for you and I
G
And although we knew
F C
This time would come for me and you
Dm
Don't say anything tonight
F
If you're gonna say goodbye



Bridge:

Am B C
And if it's over
Am B C
It hurts but I'm giving you my word
Am B C
I hope that you're always
Dm Am
Happy like we were
Dm Am
Happy like we were

There's a nice lil walk up with chords building up to the chorus with the key change.

G D
If you're gonna say goodbye

Outro:

Yesterday we were laughing (if you're gonna say goodbye)

Today I'm left here asking (if you're gonna say goodbye)

And although we knew this time would come for me and you

Don't say anything tonight

If you're gonna say goodbye

This song...practically kills me every time I listen to it...I had a girlfriend back a while, but we broke up cus she felt she wasn't ready, but she still liked me alot and I was still in love with her...and maybe a week or so ago she just said she didn't like me anymore. Like bang. It was completely over...its like its me singing this song...it completely shocked me when I heard it...I basically broke down...cus I keep telling myself the exact thing hes been singing in the song...but I hope shes happy...

my boyfriend just graduated and is going off to college. I know we're going to break up, but part of me still doesn't want to. Our relationship got more serious in december ("Do you remember in december when we swore we'd never change?") This song shows completely what I've been feeling about the relationship. AWESOME song!

This song is like, my life the past few weeks. Me and my boyfriend live about a half and hour away, and neither of us drive. I never saw him, and he had a lot of family problems. I knew we were going to break up, but I didn't want to accept it. And the eerie thing is, we met in December and started going out December 31st. We thought we would never have anything to fight about. We broke up Tuesday, and this song is like, our entire relationship in three minutes.
